Who do you most look up to?
My Dad, he taught me a lot and gave me my work ethic.
Something everyone should know about you:
People know everything there is to know about me, not much there they don't know. I do have a pretty hot temper sometimes.
Best advice you've ever received:
Ohh my god I've received a lot of advice! Probably work hard, stay out of trouble. Keep your nose clean and tend to your business.
Best thing about your job:
I get paid! I like the people that I work with.
Howard, you've been with the company since the beginning, you've got to have a good story you can share.
I got a lot of stories that I can't share!
Ohh probably back in the early '90s, the day Doug fell asleep in the crane in Burlington. That was one of those couple-dayers. We were setting up the recycling plant on Pine Street, been working a few days straight, had motel rooms but never got to use the keys. It was early morning and Doug fell asleep in the crane probably around 3 am. There was 8 of us there, we were taking turns hiding somewhere to take cat naps, when Doug fell asleep, we all snuck out and went to the motel to sleep. Got back there the next morning at 8 am and he was standing there with coffee and doughnuts, never said a word and we just got back to work.
